On shore. Page 2 is rarified air for me.

Have a terrific weekend, Muggles.

Ashore, I think? I'm going to try to confirm my answer.

Edit: I was right, but I was missing part of the mechanism :lol: Thanks to @Wendy Walker and @schmidzy, I have it now!

Admittedly I got a head start on this one thanks to the early send out yesterday. On shore, with a slight nudge to keep me from overthinking it. Hoping to drink one of the many bottles of champagne delivered to our house over the last few weeks!

I'm offshore but I did stay at a Holiday Inn and solved the MMMM Mega-Meta

Done and finally done. Had the right answer quite quickly, but just couldn't find real confirmation. After comparing notes with someone else, I figured out the true metanism that I had bypassed, and now have confirmation that I was correct.
If I'm around, I am willing to join the Muggle Zoom room at other times to lend a hand to those in need.

On Naboo. You can't tell from my facial expression (you know, the mask), but my body language says: "I'm confident about this one!"

Fun trip to shore!

I knew the title yesterday, because when I solved the Thursday puzzle, the “What to Read Next” section at the bottom of the page looked like this:

The link didn’t work though so I couldn’t see the actual puzzle til this afternoon
If you want help with a meta, feel free to PM me. The more specific you are about what you have and what you want, the more likely I can help without spoiling.

(And if I help you win a mug, I’ll be especially delighted.)

On shore. Feel like I kinda backsolved it, but I'm confident in my answer and method. Good luck to all of you!

Ashore, tough trip but lots of fun once I put it together! Avoided a 2-week losing streak.

Good luck to all for a successful solve. If you see that I'm ashore - rare occasion of late - message me if you'd like a nudge. Be sure to include your progress so I can know better how to assist.
